Metal Madness

EDIT: This posting has changed, as I have posted a newer version of the song I am presenting. Please go to http://kingkeld.blogspot.com/2010/08/metal-madness-new-mix.html to see the new, relevant posting. Thank you.

I have written and recorded a new song. This time, it’s a little tribute to the “true” metalheads out there – the bands like Manowar who takes it all dead serious. …or do they? I gotta say, I admire them for their dedication to their music and the style, and their willingness to wear skimpy leather speedos on stage. Death to false metal!

As always, please help me spread my music. I put a lot of work in these and would love for as many people as possible to hear it. If you like the music, or just feel like passing it on to someone who might, please send them a link, post this on Facebook, stumble it (use the button on the top of the page) and anything else you can think of.

The morning before the town festival

It did not look too good for the town festival this morning. This is how the street looked at 7:30 am. Later today, at 7 pm it's raining again. Does that mean I will get to sleep tonight?

South Of Heaven – Country Style!

“South Of Heaven cover”

Using RiffWorks you are able to do online collaborations, where musicians from all over the world meet up online and collaborate on music productions. What a great idea.

However, recently they have been working on the servers, upgrading systems and all kinds of other things. This affects the users in the way that we can not always access things online.

I wanted to collaborate on a “South Of Heaven” RiffLink (that’s what the collabs are called), but because of the online trouble it would not let me do it.

So I decided to do one myself, all by myself.

Not sure why it ended up as a country track. I came across the “train” drum rythms, and I guess making it country became a challenge. :)

I hope you’ll have as much fun listening to it as I had creating it.

For those of you who do NOT know the original, here it is:

 

Enjoy!

And here it is, Ladies and Gents! This is my first FULL song, finished and good to go, vocals and all. I am pretty happy with the result, though I am sure listening to is more times and nerding more with it will make me make a few changes here and there. I know, I am not the greatest singer, but at least I think I am in key most of the time. :) Anyways, Enjoy!

Of course, this WAS my first vocal attempt, mixing could be better, but overall I think this is a neat little song.

An upbeat little punk-rock-metal track, trying some drum beats out. Hope you like.

My first attempt of creating a "real" full length song using RiffWorks. I think it came out kinda nice. Thanks to Freddie for lending me his axe while mine was being sharpened at the butcher's. :)

Okay, so here is my first posting. Let me tell you just a little bit about how it came to be.

I have started writing, producing and recording music in a program called RiffWorks. It’s a great, intuitive program that really gets the musician in you going without you having to be too much of a technician at the same time. It promotes music instead of killing it with technical mumbo-jumbo. I like it. A lot.

First time I was going to try it out, my beloved guitar was in  the shop. All I had was my bass and my effects board. So I decided to do this little snippet, just to try things out. I like the result so much I decided to keep it. LOVE the bass solo sound. So angry, and so spacy. Enjoy.

Welcome to my music blog

Allright, I had enough. :) No, not angry at anyone, but myself.

I have this perfectly nice little blog thing here, and I never use it. I better get going and get this up and running.

“But I don’t know what to write about!”

Well, don’t write then, dummy. Play! Rock out! That is what you do anyways.

So there, I will start posting my music on this site. I hope you like it. I hope you will come check on a regular basis.

Look for future posts to hear what I am doing musically these days. Hopefully, it will all get better and better.

Kingkeld, Rock Star Extraordinaire! :)
